I can see.
There’s something insanely pleasurable about a first experience. The first time you eat your new favourite food – the explosion of taste. The first time you hear some big epic score pouring out surround sound. The first time you smell the ocean, the smell of the salt on the air. The first time you feel silk around your body.
The first time you see.
The trailer for the bastardised, sorry, updated version of Star Wars said something like “see it again for the first time”. I’m seeing again, and it’s the first time. Gods, it really is amazing.
It’s…a speck of dust I think, hell it could be an elephant for all I know, it’s not like I can blink or anything.
Stupid elephant, stop wigging in and out of focus.
I can see.
It’s not an elephant.
Stupid speck.
Well, not speck, it’s the edge, the speck is kind of like a bend or fold, there’s a point of light on it.
Stupid speck.
I’m dancing, I really am. Slash dance.
I think this means the end is close.
Whatever that end is.
It’d be cool if it involved elephants.
I wish the voices would come back.
Wishing isn’t going to do you any good, concentrate on the fact that you can see now, genius. Change is good, change means this place isn’t stuck and static.
Oh, great cosmic whatever, thanks for giving me the ability to see. I appreciate it. A lot. It’d just be kind of nice if there was something to look at except a kind of big prismatic reflecty nothingness.
I mean, some lint would be nice. I can do the lint watching thing for hours.
I did once, yanno, I was sick, and the power went out, and I didn’t feel up to getting Frankie out of the cupboard. Lint watched. For two hours.
Ooh! You can give me that clock now.
No clock.
Fine. I’ll just go over…stay right here and pout.
The request for lint still holds.
Go to the damn speck, Stef. >_>
(the speck is good, no?)
And lol -> lint watching :p nice and constructive activity, it is ^_^
…is awesome! ^_^
…I kinda did that today. The crap circumstances that obligated me to do so aside, yus, it is awesome ^_^
I kinda did this the last 5 days, with an even better version of lint watching…
“baby watching”
(my daughter was born on the 29th of Sept)
I can tell you. You don’t believe it, until you see it.
it’s truly amazing, a lint is nothing by it.
I can just watch my baby sleep for hours and hours and hours (and i did)!
the expressions, the movement, the lack of movement even…
I can truly recommend it.
I can remember that at a certain time, i kind of snapped out of it, and looked at my wife who was doing the same thing as i did. We just sat next to each other, no word at all, and just watching the baby sleeping.
Congratulations, AL13N! I bet she’s a little princess! Enjoy fatherhood! May she grow happy, healthy and strong, and may she inherit all your best qualities and make you proud! ^_^
*huggle* Oh my god, that’s so awesome! I’m so, so happy for you.
this post, it’s horrendous, it’s so … joyfull. When did i go emo???
/me feels so dirty
I remember this one, and I still like that last line: The request for lint still holds.
It still makes me chuckle.
